a study to assess pharmacokinetic interaction of multiple dose ketoconazole on single dose ym178 oral controlled absorption system (ocas) in healthy adult volunteers

Conditions: Healthy Subjects; Pharmacokinetics of YM178

Summary: the purpose of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetic interaction of multiple-dose ketoconazole on single-dose ym178 ocas and the safety and tolerability of ym178 ocas alone and in combination with ketoconazole in healthy adult volunteers.

a single oral dose of ym178 ocas will be administered on 2 separate occasions: alone on day 1 of period 1 and during multiple- dosing of ketoconazole on day 4 of period 2. in period 2, an oral dose of ketoconazole will be administered once daily on days 1-9.
